RENEW DIGITAL LEARNING HUB

It’s hard to believe, but it’s that time of year again to start thinking about how to reduce your practice’s tax liability for 2022. Section 179 of the IRS tax code, designed to encourage small businesses, such as dentists and dental specialists, to invest in their practices, allows them to deduct the full purchase price of qualifying equipment and/or software that has been purchased or financed during the tax year from their total gross income. This means that they can write off the full purchase amount this year and are no longer required to depreciate the equipment over time as they have in previous tax years.

At Renew Digital, we understand that purchasing a certified pre-owned dental CBCT machine is a significant investment for your dental practice. However, it’s one you willingly undertook to receive sharp, clear, three-dimensional images to help you make the best possible treatment decisions for your patients. Here are four recommended steps obtaining the most accurate images using a cone beam system.

Dental X-ray machines are FDA-regulated medical devices. As such, most states throughout the United States require that dental and dental specialty practices register their facilities and dental X-ray equipment through their state Department of Health or X-ray Programs. X-ray registration helps states maintain and protect the health and safety of the practice staff and patients through initial approvals (if required) and routine periodic inspections of the X-ray equipment. If practices fail to register their facilities and/or their X-ray machines, then states cannot properly ensure the safety of its constituents. Failure to register X-ray facilities and devices with the state in a timely manner can result in serious violations and civil penalties for the doctor and the practice.
